I don't mind listening to Wagner or reading Kipling because they're both dead, and so no money of mine goes to support causes I find reprehensible.

For a long time I avoided Anne Perry because of the murder she committed, but then I finally read one of her books, and I was hooked. She can't undo what she did, but she paid for it. She is a terrific writer.
There's a new book out about the murder--
Anne Perry and the Murder of the Century by Peter Graham. I've just put it on hold at the library and am looking forward to reading it.
